subtype: loosely_similar__looselysimilar (?,?)
subtype: related_to__relatedto (?,?) the '&' link in WebKB-2 (currently used for representing a sumo#related_internal_concept relation)
subtype: related_internal_concept (?,?) the two arguments are related concepts within the SUMO, i.e. there is a significant similarity of meaning between them; to indicate a meaning relation between a SUMO concept and a concept from another source, use sumo#related_external_concept

subtype: initial_list__initiallist (list,list) the 1st argument (?L1) is a sublist of the 2nd (?L2), and (sumo#list_order_fn ?L1 ?NUMBER) returns the same value as (sumo#list_order_fn ?L2 ?N) for all of the values of ?N over which (sumo#list_order_fn ?L1 ?N) is defined
